Hair theory Scar tissue and Verteporfin Chat 6/7/2024
A user suggests that deeper microneedling with Verteporfin injections might help regrow hair in areas with scar tissue, alongside a DHT blocker. Another user explains that hair loss might be due to reduced Wnt/β-Catenin signaling and suggests that treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and microneedling could potentially reverse it.

community 7 years minoxidil user. Is this the Time for HT ?
A 25-year-old has used minoxidil for 7 years, finasteride for 2 years, oral minoxidil and dutasteride for 3 months, and also tried microneedling and nizoral. They are considering a hair transplant but are concerned about being a good candidate due to potential retrograde alopecia.
community Topical Minoxidil 5% since March but does seem to be improving much.
Minoxidil 5% alone is not enough for significant hair regrowth; combining it with finasteride or dutasteride is advised. A hair transplant might be needed, depending on baldness extent and donor area quality.
